​The Spanish Government is deeply concerned about and rejects the recent decision made by the Nicaraguan Government to put an end to the mission of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (UNHCHR) team in Nicaragua. We ask the Nicaraguan Government to reconsider its decision about the end of the mission, endorse the conclusions of the UNHCHR report and ensure compliance with its obligations to respect the international conventions on the protection of human rights.

The Spanish Government insists on the importance of the presence of international and regional mechanisms for the protection and supervision of human rights in Nicaragua, and on the need for such mechanisms to be able to carry out their functions to the full.

Finally, we reiterate our support to National Dialogue and the mediation role of the Nicaraguan Episcopal Conference, and do hereby ask the parties to urgently resume the National Dialogue.
